Unfortunately it looks like we are waiting for the death certificate. This was a great place for locals and those of us who are exiled to exchange views and reminiscences but it seems to have hit the buffers, probably very much because of Facebook where there is an instantaneous reaction. It is very difficult to compete against that.

We certainly don't!

I agree with the other comments regarding the forum - unfortunately I've been rather caught up over the last couple of years. However, keen to give it a push to see if we can get things going. Need others to post too

I certainly don’t think it’s the death of the Forum…, but what I could say it that it may be the death of ‘General Chit Chat.’ And judging from the disagreeable attitude by some members at times, that could very well be a good thing.

There are soooo many mediums nowadays from mobiles to Facebook that postings on Chit Chat is probably now a little outdated.

On the other hand…Not even on Facebook can you find so many valued group contents as we see on the Kintyre Forum ! From news, publicity, genealogy, history and jokes etc; there’s nothing better !!!!!
